Does it? They still got killed in pass pro all day


You don’t want them running the ball more?  It sure seems to help them gain confidence. The pass protection is non existent. I don’t recall in the past linemen just running thru the line like it wasn’t there. It’s quite dysfunctional.

5-10 years ago it would have felt very good this win.  I still recall in 2012 the Bills losing to a 5-7 NFC opponent at home (the Rams) which ended the season.  That stung.

 

 

But you know rightfully so fans expectations are higher now.  So yeah the win feels good.  But the ultimate goal is higher.  

 

 

If the Bills play like they did today next week will they beat NE?  I'll leave that up to you to answer.  But to me that's what I'm looking for

We ran it 24 times tonight with Singletary, Brieda and McKenzie, some of that was at the end of the game running clock, so I would think that is about right. I'd be aiming for about 15-20 running back runs per game. Just enough to keep defenses honest but this team will love or die on Josh Allen's arm and so it should.

It’s a win. When your team wins, the correct response is to be happy. The incorrect response is to not be happy. Wait until next week and be unhappy if they lose. It’s much healthier to be happy. I’m going to go with being happy.

Let's take the win and move on. Need to figure out how to give Brown some help next week. You know Belichick was licking his chops watching him today.

Let’s hope that we don’t have to worry about seeing Brown next week at left tackle. Doyle even looked better in his few snaps.

Happy they won? Worried at the lack of confidence in the offensive play calling? Disturbed by the ease they moved the ball on us? Upset by the lack of discipline penalties? What does this game tell us about the rest of the season?

Come on fellow Granite Stater…..feel 👍

Feel good Promo.  We won.  We had  4 OL positions with different players in them, including 2 starters out of the game.  We played a strong defense.  That accounted for most of the penalties and sacks.  
 

Our defense was fine. We aren’t going to stop every drive, that is not realistic 

 

The Pats* have vulnerabilities too.  Worry next week if they are not healthier and better.
